    How can City be top when they don't even own their ground?
    An asset worth hundreds of millions to other clubs and theirs is rented, while massive chunks of their revenue comes from their owners.

    It's complete bollocks. Nobody's paying more money for City than United. Nobody!

    Not sure it would be disregarded if either were 2nd or 3rd (if not chasing the pl) if there was nothing else on.

    As for united and pool, both sacked off the pl and put all their eggs in one basket.

    But agreed, we will have to agree to disagree <ok>

    I went to that Uni group website this morning, and there was no
    mention of the report whatsoever. Therefore the BBC are citing a
    "report" that nobody publicly has access to (and the lamestream media
    made their classic copy/paste error - still, it won't cost them a 'Covington' :) ) .

    So when I said "ignore" , I meant "ignore" with a silent "It's complete bollocks" .

    If (and I am not making the assumption that we will finish in the top 4), one out of Chelsea and Arsenal finish in the top 4 and the other finishes 5th.and they end up playing each other in Europa league final I can see whoever has already bagged the champions league place winning the final as in many ways the pressure will be off for them.

    But if 5th and 6th it's going to be nervy all round.

    If Utd have got 4th, they might as well give it up as a bad job anyway

    Funny how there's no demand for a card for a blatant attempt to block a goal on the line using the arm...

    Newcastle are level. Javier Manquillo crosses the ball, but it's over Trent Alexander-Arnold and Salomon Rondon. It reaches Matt Ritchie, whose shot is wayward and reaches Rondon.

    The striker has a shot cleared off the line by Alexander-Arnold's elbow. And Christian Atsu is there to slam home the rebound.

    More **** refereeing, Arnold should get red for hand ball on the line

    And the guy who should have seen red crosses for Liverpool's second.

    Do you seriously think that there was a chance of any Liverpool player getting sent off in this match? It's hard enough in a normal match, but for one with so much riding on it, no chance. They'd have to still have Suarez in the team and he'd not only have to take a bite, he'd have to eat a whole limb.

    Says a lot that it should be impossible to wish a team guilty of financial doping to win the league - but the absurd amount of dodgy decisions in Saltypool's favour, coupled with their fans' general entitled attitude coupled with them getting superbly arsey when you dare say a goal shouldn't count if the person scoring or creating it was several feet offside, downgrades that to merely improbable

    Not sure you can get a red in those circumstances...think it can only be a yellow. The red is for if a goal is not scored...but I might be wrong

    Didn't you know the national motto of Zimbabwe is "Our elections are less dodgy than the refereeing in the average Saltypool match"?

    …..and we think we have trouble. Notts County out of the English Football League for the first time.The oldest football team at 157 years of age.

    …..and your favourite center half at Macclesfield may have survived the same fate!~!!!

    …..and Southend avoids relegation v...…...Sunderland!!!!!

    Dropping out of the league may be the least of Notts County's problems - or possibly the last of their problems

    They must hate Judas.
    He joined them on a huge wage and then had some kind of financial row with them and was able to leave on a free transfer iirc...and now he survives at their expense

    Another 3 points gifted to the Dippers at St James`, Fabinho goes down in true Salah style with no contact whatsoever, a free kick is gifted and the winning goal is scored. The title race would have been over weeks ago if the officials did their jobs properly.
